I've really wanted to buy figures like these but djfungshing on eBay is super expensive. I could deal with the price of the figure but then shipping essentially doubles the price of the figure. How much did you pay for some of your's?

I live in Australia and our dollar the moment is absolutely horrible against the US (0.82 Australian dollars for everyone US Dollar). So at the moment I am essentially paying 20% extra :( My first figure I bought myself was SSJ2 Gohan vs Cell, that set me back around $270. I also have Android 17 vs Piccolo and Trunks vs Mecha Frieza, both were gifts but I know they cost around the $300 mark.

I really want this Majin Buu one though it looks epic, but the price is going to be ridiculous. I am probably looking at $450 plus with the dollar the way it is but I am waiting for the exact invoice from the guy now. Might have to give it a miss :(

It used to hover around 40-50c until about 7 years ago. I wouldn't count on it rising back up to $1 any time soon.

That looks really good and I honestly might look in to doing this here in the United states to put on the wall around my display case area.

If you want some panels from the Full Color manga, just let me know and I'll send them your way. LordCrumb got the panels for those canvases from me.

They're from Shueisha's digital Full Color release of the series. You can pick them up on the Japanese iTunes for only ¥500 each. It's a really good deal. I recently bought them all and am making my own personal English versions of them to tide me over until VIZ finishes theirs.

Dear Kami, if only I had knew that a year later I could've bought Rock the Dragon for £10 ($15) I wouldn't have spent £50 on it but no one's able to predict the future. That's right, I bought another RtD set for £10 ($15).

I kind of feel ripped off myself (curse you custom fees!) but at the time I really wanted it.
FUNimation 2015 Releases I want:
- Kai 2.0 on Blu-ray

It was from eBay.
